This is an outrageous story. The deep archival & research work of filmmaker #ReinaGossett (pictured above) did for her film with #SashaWortzel @hbdmarsha on the life of black, trans woman activist #MarshaPJohnson , who led the initial actions of the 1969 Stonewall Riots has been completely stolen by documentarian #DavidFrance for his new @netflix documentary on #MarshaPJohnson 🌀Spreading the message per #reinagossett request, it's also been reported on by @teenvogue @janetmock & more 🌀Repost @hbdmarsha #deepshare #realtruth "this week while I'm borrowing money to pay rent, david france is releasing his multimillion dollar netflix deal on marsha p johnson. i'm still lost in the music trying to #pay_it_no_mind and reeling on how this movie came to be and make so much $ off of our lives and ideas. david got inspired to make this film from a grant application video that @sashawortzel & I made and sent to Kalamazoo/Arcus Foundation social justice center while he was visiting. He told the people who worked there -i shit you not- that he should be the one to do this film, got a grant from Sundance/Arcus using my language and research about STAR, got Vimeo to remove my video of Sylvia's critical "y'all better quiet down" speech, ripped off decades of my archival research that i experienced so much violence to get, had his staff call Sasha up at work to get our contacts then hired my and Sasha's *ADVISOR* to our Marsha film Kimberly Reed to be his producer. And that's just the shit I have the spoons to name. TRUST🥄THERE'S🥄SO🥄MUCH 🥄MORE🥄. This kind of extraction/excavation of black life, disabled life, poor life, trans life is so old and so deeply connected to the violence Marsha had to deal with throughout her life. So I feel so much rage and grief over all of this & STAR must have some serious level plan on moving through many---and clearly by any means necessary---to get the message out... So tonight I'm channeling high priestess energy to show me the honey throne cuz this storm queen is 😖😫😱" @reinaxgossett

When Marsha P. Johnson, the beloved self-described "street queen" of NY's Christopher Street was found in the Hudson River in 1992, the NYPD called her death a suicide, despite evidence to the contrary. Now, twenty-five years on, Academy Award nominated director David France (How to Survive a Plague) examines the death, and life, of this extraordinary individual.

".....I've been emailing back and forth this week with #MichaelLesser as we both try to recall treasured moments with our friend #GriffinGold, who died from #AIDS in 1989. #DavidFrance is including Griff in his upcoming book on AIDS activism. He was the first person with #HIV I met after my own diagnosis. Michael and his boyfriend Ray were Griff's best friends at the time, and to the end"'- by Peter Staley #whatisrememberedlives #theaidsmemorial #aidsmemorial #endaids #lgbthistory
